So, I finally got my contract today. An official UN person, I stood proud and had this inner grin the whole time. I felt belonged in a very documented way. BigSis has told me once and it kept echoing in my head “Swe, did you get it documented”. When you have a MOBY in your list of ex bosses, you would actually be VERY pedantic about documents.
So, I was asked to go to the procurement department of UN to get my thing signed. The admin chick, Fashionista (woohoo new character), was surprised they had actually asked her to bring me along with her to the procurement. Normally, the contract could be just handed to her to make the client or the new employee sign. I was semi worried at first since I thought I was gonna be either probed or tested for something.
When I reached the Procurement Office, I felt eyes staring at me and I heard whispers of my name. The dude, who asked me to sign the contract, was like “Oh I thought you would be young but you’re much younger than what I had expected” and the chick next to him was like “So this is you.. the singer, huh?” and I felt kinda blushy, yet welcomed, by this UN HR crowd.
So, the whole deal about asking me to come to Procurement Department was just to satisfy their curiosities about ME being their colleague. Sometimes, I wonder how uneasy, yet fun, this would’ve been if only had I sold records as much as Justin Timberlake had. A singer in UN who’s working on his fifth album. What’s so cool or abnormal about that? Haha.
